Nothing like knitting to take the edge off…

…well ok, a turn at the wheel does wonders as well.  Edge, what edge you ask, well this knitter has a 4 hour interview tomorrow, so I finished the socks that were supposed to be done last Sunday at knitting tonight.

Pattern:  Earl Grey by none other than the Yarn Harlot

Needles:  #2 circular needles 10″ with a stretch cord and KP 2.50mm DPN’s.

Yarn: Dream in Color Smooshy but the ball band got away and I didn’t note the color in Ravlery so I don’t know what the color is, but it’s a beautiful slightly variegated brown, perfect for a pair of socks for DH.

Thoughts, this was a fun knit, well except for those needles (the circular not the KP).  The little needles were surprisingly easy to knit with, and I liked the stretchy cord, however, I didn’t like the join, it caught every stitch and was rather a PITA to deal with.  I’ll probably never use them again, the entire experience would have been a complete joy had the joins just let the knitting slip right on by.
